That you've added those directives with no fix makes me more confident that
your proxy is simply not forwarding your Accept-Encoding: gzip header.

I'm not sure if nginx can log request headers, but if you have it configured
for PHP, you can request a simple test script:

var_dump($_SERVER["HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING"]);
